SANDERS HAD A PRODUCTIVE SIT DOWN WITH CARDI B

Sanders opened up to CNN about his collaboration with the popular singer who also shares the Vermont independent candidate’s passion for former President Franklin Roosevelt.

According to Sanders, he and the 26-year-old chart-topper spoke about several important issues during their sit down including climate change, the cancellation of student debt, and raising minimum wage.

Cardi hinted after their meeting when she tweeted her thanks to the senator that they also discussed Sanders’plans to combat economic, racial and social injustices.

Cardi B’s latest pronouncements about Sanders coincides with her recent attack against President Donald Trump. The rapper slammed POTUS for turning a blind eye on police brutality directed towards black people

The video was reportedly shot at a local nail salon owned by two Black women. This may be the first of Sander’s future collaborations with Cardi who has yet to endorse him as her candidate of choice despite expressing her admiration for him earlier last month. She tweeted,

“I been reading about Bernie Sanders and I'm really sad how we let him down in 2016. This man been fighting for equal rights, HUMAN rights for such along time. Seeing this country become a better place been really his passion for a long time not a new front for a campaign."

Sanders likewise lauded the singer during an interview with Jimmy Kimmel on the host’s show describing her as “really smart” and “deeply concerned about what’s happening in this country.”

CARDI DOESN'T FEEL THE SAME FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP

Cardi B’s latest pronouncements about Sanders coincides with her recent attack against President Donald Trump. The rapper slammed POTUS for turning a blind eye on police brutality directed towards black people.

She resigned to the fact that as long as Trump is president, the issue will remain unsolved.

Cardi clearly has a lot of concern for her community making her an artist who not only influences through her music but uses her voice for a greater cause. We wish her success in her future endeavors in making this country a better place.
